Coventry City fans have reacted to the news that the Football League could allow the club to leave Coventry again, if a long term stadium solution cannot be found.

The Football League’s stance emerged as Coventry North East MP Colleen Fletcher met with Football League officials after the organisation had previously ducked questions from the Telegraph.

Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher insists club officials do not want to move out of Coventry again, but the Football League’s stance will do little to reassure fans worried that there could be a repeat of the Sixfields fiasco which saw the Sky Blues play ‘home’ matches 35 miles away in Northampton for more than a season.

JuiceTerry: “At the end of the day, Mrs Fletcher should have thought about this potential implication for CCFC (whether owned by SISU or otherwise) when she and her labour colleagues decided to sell the Ricoh to an out of town rugby team.”

Ricohdico: “The FA don’t give a hoot, it's not them that lose thousands of supporters and income.”

Bager: “Really is time fans made their voices heard. Support The Boycott.”

Robin Elms: “Unfortunately the end of the club is nigh, it will be a long drawn out affair with Sisu going through the motions and saying the right things, but in reality nothing will happen for me. As far as the EFL are concerned, again another load of empty words, if CCFC fold again, would they care, probably not, the Sky Blues record would be expunged for the season, only two teams relegated from the league instead of three and three promoted from Div 2, after a few weeks CCFC will be consigned to the annuls of football history.”

Spudman: “Surely the survival of CCFC is of the greatest importance to the Football League, however, from this interview, although stated a few times, it seems hard to believe they give a toss.”

IanInFrance: “The last time Fisher and co played ‘hardball’ with ACL they failed spectacularly and the move to NTFC cost us millions and forced the sale of Callum Wilson and James Maddison. Surely the Football League and Sisu realise if we move out of the city, gates will be 2,000 and the club effectively dead on its feet.”

Pimprail: “Who would buy a club who play at a 2/3rds empty stadium because the team isn’t performing very well? The Not One Penny More protest was supposed to have finished a year ago and a string of good results saw them at the top of the table with an increasing gate. It’s unfortunate CCFC are going through a poor spell at the moment, but that has resulted in the glory supporters staying away, harming the saleability of the club.”

CoventryCitizen: “If you put a poor product on the pitch, do you blame fans for staying away. Gates increased last year, but did that money result in us keeping our best players and/or improving our squad? No, and quite clearly no.”

Abo: “What I expect the Football League to do is grow a pair. Support the supporters, not let a hedge fund run the show.”
